Chapter 1045
June 2046 in the Western calendar.
The temperature in Tianhai City becomes hot in early summer.
The monsoon blowing from the east coast cannot dispel the high temperature of the subtropical climate, but brings humid air.
Summer always comes earlier in the south than in the north.
Even the cicadas on the banyan trees are more diligent than those in the north. They climb to the treetops early and make annoying "cicada~cicada~" calls.
This sound lingered outside the courtyard of the Shinri Church, impatient and slightly impatient.
It looked like a group of people were arguing about something rapidly.
In a Japanese-style courtyard, a girl dressed in a shrine maiden's costume sat under the eaves, her hands quietly placed on both sides of her body, curiously looking at a green cicada on the treetop outside the courtyard.
As the saint of the Tianhai branch of Shinri Christianity, Yuan Kongye has been trained as the successor of the church since childhood.
Her parents claimed that she possessed some extraordinary abilities.
Therefore, every member who joins the church will be baptized and blessed by her.
When she was very young, she just thought this ritual was very interesting.
Although she didn't understand why those believers looked at her with such piety, she didn't dislike the feeling of being respected and loved.
However, as she grew older, she began to realize that she did not have any special abilities.
The so-called blessing ceremony was merely a way to comfort the believers, and even a tool for her parents to make money.
Gradually, Yuan Kongye no longer liked this kind of thing.
She began to be unable to bear the looks the believers gave her.
It was like the look of a drowning swimmer grasping at a lifeline.
As she grew older, she developed a rebellious spirit in her heart.
However, she could not resist her parents' request.
Perhaps deep down, she also enjoys the feeling of being respected and loved.
But once people knew that she was just an ordinary girl and not a saint with extraordinary powers, she would lose all her current identity, status, and superior life.
Therefore, during his adolescence, Yuan Kongye was always confused between this comfort and self-blame.
She kicked off the clogs on her feet, and the white socks wrapped her feet tightly.
Shinri originated in Neon, so she always wears Neon shrine maiden clothes.
The red and white clothing has a conspicuous and eccentric feel.
At least in Tianhai City, she rarely goes out wearing this outfit.
The church behind me was very noisy.
She didn't know what they were arguing about because this group of people always did strange things.
So she came to the courtyard to breathe some fresh air.
But when I looked up, I saw layers of white clouds in the sky moving slowly like mountains, pressing towards my head.
The air is dull.
Yuan Kongye felt discomfort in his chest.
It seemed like something was about to happen. She placed her right hand on her chest and could feel her heart beating faster.
"Did...something bad happen?"
Yuan Kongye muttered to himself.
At this moment, the wooden door behind him was pushed open with a "crash".
Yuan Kongye suddenly turned around and saw the Grand Elder of the Shenli Sect, Uncle Qin, who had always cared for her since she was a child, looking at her seriously.
"Saint, I have something to inform you. Just two hours ago, the plane the leader and his wife were on, bound for Kyoto, crashed over the East China Sea."
boom!
It was as if something exploded in Yuan Kongye's mind, leaving her brain blank.
As for what the Great Elder said afterwards, she couldn't hear clearly at all.
All I saw was that the Great Elder's face was more serious and cold than usual; even his funny bald head looked like a piece of cold stone.
In the summer of 2046, Yuan Kongye's life trajectory underwent a huge change.
From heaven, into hell.
……
……
The funeral of Hara Suiyun and my wife Kamiko was held a month later.
Their bodies were never found.
However, with their deaths, Shinri Cult also faced a huge crisis.
In the past, Yuan Suiyun and his wife, who were the leader and high priest of the religion, declared to their followers that as long as they believed in the religion, they could obtain happiness and stay away from disasters.
Countless followers are addicted to the fantasies they have woven.
There are the downtrodden who have lost their lives, the sick who are suffering from intractable diseases, and the family members who are seeking medical treatment for their wives and children...
For the sake of false promises, they donated all their property to Shinriism, and even cheated their relatives and friends out of their money and gave it to the two of them.
With the death of Yuan Suiyun and his wife, their dreams were shattered in an instant. Many people woke up and realized that they had been deceived.
At their funeral, Yuan Kongye wore black and knelt in front of the coffin.
No one came to offer condolences, but instead those angry church members came over and angrily insulted their entire family.
Those once kind and gentle faces have now become extremely distorted and terrifying.
Only her childhood sweetheart Zheng Yixian, dressed in a black suit, stood firmly in front of her.
